for some time I keep a shared items list in Google Reader. It is available as a feedburner feed. You can read here about my interests for Linux/Un*x, Gnome, .NET, Python, electronics, gadgets and more.

Yesterday I shared an article about AOL (or ICQ) finally adopting the XMPP protocol... perhaps it is the start of something they promised years ago; interoperability. Finally you can connect to a testserver; it meant I needed to log in to my old account again. Well, it seems they trashed one account of me and the password reminder function does not work properly for 25725591. So do not use that account anymore. Instead use 9864024 to contact me on ICQ. Google also claims to provide support to access these networks and SIP support... until now we haven't seen much progress in this direction besides being able to login to AIM. Hopefully this will happen soon!

Soon I will publish about setting up a Continious Integration server for .NET development on Software Innovators. The articles will be in Dutch, but if you want to have access to a translation, just ask me. If there is enough demand I will also post them on my .NET blog.
